Scott and Catarina met during sophomore year at Bentley University. While in the early stages of their relationship, Scott accidentally broke Catarina’s collar bone while mud sliding on the lower campus which led to the groom’s first meeting of the bride’s mother and sister in the hospital. Their relationship grew even stronger from that pivotal moment.

Scott and Catarina wanted a wedding that would be fun, different and relaxed so they left the New England winter to get married in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic in January. Having a destination wedding allowed them to enjoy several days with family and friends, and they were overjoyed with the turnout as 65 guests joined them for the happy occasion.

The groom is the son of Kevin and Susan Kickery, of East Hartford. His father is the VP and small business lender for Farmington Bank in West Hartford Center and is an active board member of the West Hartford Chamber of Commerce and the West Hartford Business Association.

Catarina works as Vice President in the Finance Projects Office at BNP Paribas, and Scott is a Marketing Strategy Consultant for Epsilon. and they currently reside in Hoboken, NJ. You’ll see see Scott’s sister’s wedding next week, and you’ll find his other sister’s wedding (Roger and Kate Haas) here.
